The release candidates for the second 1.69.0 beta release are now available at:

https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/beta/1.69.0.beta1.rc2/source/

The release notes are not yet final.

The SHA256 checksums are as follows:

As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download the candidate of your choice and give building it a try. Please report both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

We're still seeing the same msvc-8.0 errors:

compile-c-c++ bin.v2\libs\log\build\msvc-8.0\release\link-static\threadapi-win32\threading-multi\trivial.obj trivial.cpp .\boost/parameter/aux_/arg_list.hpp(227) : error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function taking 1 arguments .\boost/parameter/aux_/arg_list.hpp(390) : see reference to class template instantiation 'boost::parameter::aux::arg_list' being compiled

Please check if mpl has commit ac67f5952e6c849e461d7651ffb4fa0e7f380bb0 on 'master'. This is the commit which fixes the above problem in msvc-8.0. It may not have made it in to the second beta release.

Compile means that the b2 command completed without errors Link means that visual studio was able to link a sample executable to a library (libboost_thread-vcXXX-mt[-gd]-1_XX.lib) generated Execute means that the linked program executed without errors.
